2008.10.16 07:00 - Notes from real life

Fael and I began talking before the meeting:

Fael Illyar: Morning :)

Corvuscorva Nightfire: Mornin'!

Corvuscorva Nightfire: How are you Fael?

Fael Illyar: I'm good today, looks like I'm over jet lag :)

Fael Illyar: You?

Corvuscorva Nightfire: I'm ok.  Been a hard week, but a good day.

Fael Illyar: That's good to hear :)

Corvuscorva Nightfire: Having fun there?

Fael Illyar: Yes :) There was an interesting group of people here to meet Piet (Pema) yesterday :)

Corvuscorva Nightfire: people we know?  or other people?

Fael Illyar: others :)

Fael Illyar: Some kind of a group from Phoenix.

Corvuscorva Nightfire tilts her head, listening.

Fael Illyar: had sent Piet an email about wanting to talk about "nature of reality and ways of knowing" :)

Corvuscorva Nightfire: !!!

Fael Illyar: and just happened that I was here and Adams also popped in during the meeting. The original plan was 10-12 but that ended up being 10-13:30

Corvuscorva Nightfire smiles..sounds like fun.

Fael Illyar: Yes, we had lunch with them, they got an introduction about Second Life :)

Corvuscorva Nightfire: I am having a hard time leaping out of "Corvi" to "eye" and imagining you all in rl.

Corvuscorva Nightfire smiles.

Fael Illyar: it kind of felt like PaB meeting overall :)

Corvuscorva Nightfire grins.

Corvuscorva Nightfire: I just can't imagine "Eye" in a PaB meeting.

Corvuscorva Nightfire laughs.

Fael Illyar: somehow doesn't feel like a leap for me :)

Corvuscorva Nightfire: I can't imagine "Eye" meeting any of  Corvi's friends.

Corvuscorva Nightfire grins.

Corvuscorva Nightfire: were you in sl before you went to PaB or did you start in sl to be in PaB?

Fael Illyar: here's an interesting tidbit, it likely won't be just "Eye" :)

Corvuscorva Nightfire grins.

Corvuscorva Nightfire: interesting indeed.

Fael Illyar: I found PaB at the end of May this year. I started SL in middle of February.

Corvuscorva Nightfire nods thoughtfully.

Corvuscorva Nightfire: so..you are in Princeton...being you the typist and being Fael?

Fael Illyar: I can't tell the difference.

Corvuscorva Nightfire: mm

Corvuscorva Nightfire: hmm

Corvuscorva Nightfire thinks about last night's discussion of 0th-->1st--->2nd life.

Corvuscorva Nightfire: I wonder if Being can tell the difference.

Corvuscorva Nightfire: I can

Corvuscorva Nightfire: I can tell the difference between Corvi and I

Fael Illyar: the line has been increasingly blurry lately.

Corvuscorva Nightfire nods.

Corvuscorva Nightfire: smiles.

Corvuscorva Nightfire: I do like the backformation bits of Corvi...

Corvuscorva Nightfire: the places where Eye becomes her.

Corvuscorva Nightfire: borrows something new from her.

Corvuscorva Nightfire considers..this might not be what you mean, though.

Fael Illyar: Yes, kind of

Fael Illyar: but for me it goes like. I realize I'm uncomfortable, then realize that it's not necessary and proceed to find out how to not be :)

Corvuscorva Nightfire: hmm

Fael Illyar: well, mostly, seems to be just stop being self conscious.

Corvuscorva Nightfire nods.

Fael Illyar: as in, stop trying to observe yourself like you were someone else :)

Fael Illyar: stop imagining what they might e thinking :)

Corvuscorva Nightfire nods.

Corvuscorva Nightfire: for me..it's not imagining what Corvi is thinking...Eye am Corvi...in SL....and someone a little different when not in SL.

Corvuscorva Nightfire: Corvi tries more, is more open.

Corvuscorva Nightfire: Eye am more cautious.

Fael Illyar: umm... no imagining in that way.

Fael Illyar: thoughts come and go. How you react to the thoughts is the key

About 7am, we "began" 

 Fael Illyar: Hello Corvi :)

You: Hi, Fael!

You: Fael...

 Fael Illyar: Hi Gaya :)

We moved from there into a fashion show....and decided to keep the details to ourselves.  Suffice it to say Fael and Gaya are amazing.
